The Wings of an Angel

THE ANGEL

by Crystal Wilkins

He trudges along through the snow,
his weary legs keep walking
the wind is stinging his old, wrinkled face
He looks through a window of a log cabin
and sees a family of five sitting at a
dinner table, with only food to feed two.
He hears their wish, and grants it.
Now there is wonderful food to feed them all.

He continues to trudge in the snow
The bright moon is the only light
He sees a shivering pup lying in the snow
He picks up the pup and puts it inside his
long black coat.
The pup immediately stops shivering.

He jumps at the sound of a gunshot
The hunters are out hunting for dinner
The man hears the cries of the animals and
saves them all by giving
them a safe place to hide in the forest.

Though he may not have room in his hands
to save everything, but he's got all the room
in the world in his heart.
This man is invisble to others.
He goes around guarding lives.
